What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? New York, but it is a federal case (U.S. District Court)
Is it possible for a lawyer, who has represented a corporation in other cases and who says he is authorized by that company to waive service of process, later claim that he is not authorized to receive process for that corporate client after a process server has duly handed a summons and complaint to him?
Also, if the professional server makes an error on the proof of service by putting the name of the lawyer's law firm rather than the corporate defendant's name, can the filing of an amended complaint by that server fix the issue?
